SCOOP: Many of the pages that went missing on Friday from the CDC website on Friday have reappeared — in response to intense media coverage, backlash from the scientific community and concern for the public’s health.

There's a very strange expectation that any one proposed science reform must:

1) Fully solve a problem
2) Solve MANY vaguelly related problems
3) Have zero negative impact on anything

No single reform like that exists, so the status quo bias reigns and everyone gets pretty weird about it.
